About Me
I received my BA in Interactive Media from the University of Wisconsin-Superior in December, 2021. I am passionate about storytelling, designing for diversity, web accessibility, and continuous learning. Through my work, I strive to build on my skills as a visual communicator, interaction designer, and digital content creator to have a positive effect on people's lives.
I hope to further develop my media production skills, travel the world, and one day return to the ocean to SCUBA dive to film and edit a documentary about the life below the surface. In my free time, I enjoy writing, reading, listening to music, watching movies, biking, hiking, photography/video production, learning about cephalopods and other marine biology, and spending time with my friends/family.
